Bottle from Burg Bieren, BB 17 02 17, large sample. Almost clear amber color, medium frothy slight off-white head. Some tiny debris floating around. Aroma of some toffee and caramel, slight citrussy hop, bit buttery. Quite sweet in taste, toffee, butterscotch. Hmm, not too impressive.

330ml bottle. Dark brown colour with fantastic ruby red glimmer and absurdely huge, frothy, fairly lasting, moderately lacing, off-white to beige head. Woody, smoky aroma, hints of ashes, resin, glue, a herbal touch, hints of dark berries. Taste smoky, slightly roasty dark malty, woody, hints of resin and glue. Sadly some of the more fleshy smoke notes are rather ephemeral and give way to a slightly displeasing resinous glue note; which, once sniffed, it is hardly possible to get rid of.

Black. Aroma of smoked meat. Flavour is initially smokey and salty. It mellows out nicely in the finish.

33 cl. bottle @ home, bought @ Mitra Tiel. Clear dark brown with a small beige head. Malty and smokey aroma with a hint of mint?, i wonder where that came from. Taste is sweet and has also some smoke. body is medium, finish is long and smokey. Although reasonably smokey the smoke is balanced really nice with the malt base. A very nice beer.

On tap at PINT Meibockfestival ’15. Hazy golden orange colour, white head. Aroma of some fruits and blossom. Flavour is almost absent, very dull, a little fruity, some amber malts. Light bodied. Extremely forgettable.
